Shop facts
Warning signals
- WHOIS According to WHOIS the domain has been registered for less than two years; there is no longer operating history.
- SSL certificate The site's SSL certificate expires in less than 30 days - if it is not renewed, browsers will soon warn visitors when the site is opened.
- Fake shop lists The domain is listed on official warning lists for fraudulent shops (1 list hits) - consumer protection bodies or authorities have already recorded it as a fraud site.
- Domain age The domain has existed for 6 months and therefore not for a full year - unusual for an established retailer, but typical for a freshly created shop.
- URL structure clone The site's URL structure is identical to that of a confirmed fake shop - the site is a clone from the same series.
- Reputation Web research found indications of negative experiences that could not be conclusively confirmed (rating 1.5 out of 5 from 43 reviews).
- Imprint
In the shop's favour
- DNS configuration The domain has a complete email configuration with MX and SPF records - the shop can therefore actually send and receive email under its own address.
- External reputation feeds The external security databases queried hold no warning about this domain - neither for malware nor for phishing.
Further checks
- Server location The site's server is located in Seattle, US and therefore within the EU/US area - a legal area in which claims against the operator can be enforced if necessary.
- Content depth The site has very few subpages - an established shop with a real product range looks different.
- Scam pattern No known scam pattern was detected - the site does not match any of the fraud patterns documented by us.
